In the same timeslot, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow (3.261M, 494K) sat down with Hillary Clinton to chew over Barr’s assertion Trump can fire anyone investigating him if Trump think he’s innocent, among his other interesting Dem-jaw dropping legal assertions. Maddow’s audience rose 10% in total viewers and 2% in the news demo.

Hannity and Maddow pounded CNN’s Chris Cuomo (994K, 245K), who gained 2% in total viewers compared to previous night and dropped 10% in the key 25-54 age bracket. Cuomo was not CNN’s top performer that night, bested by Anderson Cooper, who clocked 1.12M total viewers, 264K in the news demo at 9 PM Wednesday.
